Abstract :
The paper investigates the application of a simple nonlinear structure to the problem of adaptive channel equalisation. Based on the Bayes decision rule, it is shown that the optimal equalisation solution is an inherently nonlinear problem and, therefore, it is desired to incorporate some degree of nonlinearity in the design of equaliser structure. The approximate realisation of the optimal equalisation solution is implemented using a polynomial-perceptron architecture and simulation results are included to support the theoretical analysis.<>
